Jia Baoyu nodded blankly.
The rain outside kept beating on the green willow walls, and bananas were planted on a few rocks in the courtyard. The banana leaves are as big as umbrellas, and there is a crane hiding under the banana tree picking its feathers. There are also a few under the pine trees over there, and they are picking each other's feathers.
At this moment, Baoyu didn't know whether he was a lone crane under the banana tree or one of the group of cranes hiding from the rain under the pine tree.
I feel sad in my heart, and the rest of my life is uncertain.
Xiren comforted him and said, "Second Master, let's go back. Although it is the first time to fall asleep, we are still infected with evil spirits. Our body is in a hurry. We are already... stained by the evil spirits caused by the rain..."
Baoyu suddenly looked towards her after hearing Xiren's words. He stood up angrily and kicked the attacker in the stomach. He scolded: "Where did the wetness come from, where did the evil come from. My body is very tight, very tight. It's all because of you who control me and can't do this or do that. You also scare the maids with your wife, and you know how to sell it." The favor is good."
Xiren fell in the corridor holding his stomach tightly, his face was in pain.
Baoyu was still cursing: "Whose room are you from? I think you are a follower of my wife."
"Second Master..." Xiren called out, thinking of retorting, but the pain prevented her from speaking.
Other maids around heard the commotion and ran over. Seeing the situation in the corridor, they did not dare to help the attacker. He just hid aside and waited for Mr. Bao to calm down. Qingwen, Sheyue and others who were paying attention to the activities on the porch in the backyard saw them and also hurried over.
She Yue timidly went over to comfort Mr. Bao.
But Qingwen was bold. She knelt down to help Xiren up, and then cursed at the little maids watching the fun: "You little hooves with no eyesight, why don't you go find the imperial doctor outside the garden."
Baoyu glanced at Xiren and saw that she was uncomfortable. Although she felt sorry in her heart, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed because her anger was not completely gone.
Just pretended not to see it.
But the other maids were not sure whether they should call the imperial doctor, they were just waiting for the second master to say something.
Qingwen said angrily: "Second Master was unhappy, so he beat and scolded the maid. If a serious illness comes to my wife's ears, how can Second Master get any benefits?"
After being scolded, Baoyu relented and asked someone to call the imperial doctor. He only remembered that what Qingwen said would reach his wife's ears, not because he was afraid, but because he was afraid that his wife would hear the secret.
Some maids left Yihongyuan in a hurry, and Xiren was also carried into the room and placed on a soft bed.
Xiren covered his stomach with one hand and held Qingwen with the other, saying: "I'm fine, just rest for a while. Will the second master's anger subside by now? Don't let him suffer from the cold evil."
Qingwen frowned and said, "Worry about your own health first."
Even though Xiren was in bed at the moment, he still had to curl up to relieve the pain, his lips were purple, and he didn't forget to hold Qingwen's hand tightly. Said: "Let's go over and have a look."
"There's no need to go and take a look." Qingwen looked at Xiren with a complicated expression and said calmly: "Qiu Wen went over and said some kind words of relief, and now the second master has pulled her inside. Why do you need to care about her? .”
Xiren was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but he seemed to be relieved and managed to smile and said, "Thank you."
"There's no need to say thank you. I'm here with you today just because I don't have any sewing work to do." Qingwen then used pillows and quilts to cushion and cover Xi Ren. He said calmly: "Second Master can kick you today, but who knows if he will kick me like this tomorrow when he is in a bad mood?"
Xi Ren stayed for a while and even forgot about the pain on his body.
In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
Zijuan led Uncle Rong all the way, and soon they entered the place where Daiyu lived. The few maids in the room just looked at the shy girl with her head down with wide eyes, in disbelief.
Uncle Rong hummed, saw Xue Yan in the room, and said, "Miss Xue Yan, could you please find a clean towel and dry your aunt's hands."
Daiyu's face changed at this time, and she was no longer stubborn. She said calmly: "Let's find a towel for Brother Rong to wipe with. It's raining heavily outside, and Brother Rong's back is all wet."
Brother Rong curled his lips, how could he not get wet? With such a small umbrella, the back of my neck is still freezing. There is also rain flowing directly from the back of the neck and down the back. Only those who have experienced it will know the feeling.
At that time, I was only thinking about bringing Lin Daiyu back, but I forgot to change the umbrella from the maid's hand to a larger one.
He looked at Daiyu and saw that the sleeve of her right hand was completely wet, but there was no trace of wetness elsewhere.
Zicuckoo ordered: "Light up the smoker in the room and bake Uncle Xiao Rong's clothes clean."
"No need, I have something to do and I have to go to Hengwuyuan." Brother Rong replied. If your clothes get wet, just go to Hengwuyuan to find Baochai to solve the problem. Why bother Lin Daiyu. It was really difficult for him to change out of these clothes in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
Daiyu listened and said leisurely: "Let's light it up first. Some people were still saying that people have to pity themselves, but now they don't pity and cherish themselves. Wearing such wet clothes, Qi Ming Meng fell ill, and Dong The grandma in the house is just afraid that she will come to me to get to the bottom of it."
At the right time, Zijuan saw Xueyan coming over with a towel and hurriedly took it over. After taking it, he gave it to Xiang Ling behind Uncle Rong and said, "Miss Ling'er, go and dry yourself off for your uncle first. There is a small study room vacant next to it. You can also go there and change your clothes."
Seeing this, Xueyan jumped anxiously. After calling out hurriedly, he saw Uncle Xiao Rong taking the towel from Xiang Ling's hand and wiping his neck. I had no choice but to swallow the rest of the words into my stomach.
Brother Rong asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Xue Yan glanced at Zicuckoo helplessly and replied: "Nothing, Uncle Xiao Rong, please go next door to change clothes."
nothing? How can nothing happen?
That towel was a clean towel she found in the girl's room, which the girl often used.
Brother Rong felt confused, but didn't think much about it. Wiping the back of the neck and then the side of the face. Suddenly, I smelled a familiar faint fragrance on the square-length handkerchief, like the smell of Daiyu.
When Jia Rong was stunned, he saw that the Zijuan and Snow Goose had lowered their heads. Lin Daiyu blushed even more at this moment and hurriedly walked into the inner room.
Daiyu also said: "Brother Rong, please quickly change out of your wet clothes and ask Miss Xiangling to bring them to you."
Brother Rong was thinking, this thing in his hand must not be the right one. At this moment, I don't know whether I should continue to use this towel to wipe myself. I had no choice but to go to the next room with Xiang Ling first.
After entering the room, the maid outside brought another thin quilt. Uncle Xiao Rong is asked to dry both the inside and the outside, and first wear a quilt to keep warm.
"..."
Daiyu, on the other hand, blushed early and had fun, asking Zijuan and Xueyan to dress her up carefully. She asked Zicuckoo: "How did my sister guess that Brother Rong was going to move on now?"
Although Zicuckoo is a few years older than Daiyu, he is even more happy to hear the girl call him sister. He smiled and said, "It's not a guess. It was Ying'er who came to Wuyuan early this morning. Then I asked the girl to hold an umbrella and go forward."
Lin Daiyu's joy disappeared a lot, and she hummed with a black face: "She is the only smart person in the world."
